The Defense Health Agency (DHA) has issued a Sources Sought notification regarding the standardization of Emergency Thermal Blankets designed for hypothermia prevention, targeting vendors listed on the Qualified Suppliers List (QSL). These blankets are intended for use in Military Treatment Facilities (MTFs) across the Defense Department, with an estimated annual demand of approximately $180,035.17. Vendors must submit discounted pricing off existing DAPA prices and provide company details and documentation by the specified deadline of April 3, 2025. The government aims to select a single vendor based on the lowest price and encourages an 80% purchase velocity for the Medical Health System’s needs. Importantly, this request is not a contract, but an initiative to streamline material standardization in medical supply procurement through the Prime Vendor Program. The selected vendor will be expected to maintain their quoted prices for 75 days following submission, and any unqualified submissions will be automatically disqualified from participation. Overall, this initiative reflects the government's strategy for cost-effective procurement and operational readiness within the military health system.
The Medical Materiel Enterprise Standardization Office (MMESO) seeks vendor submissions for pricing on emergency thermal blankets aimed at hypothermia prevention. Vendors are required to provide a detailed pricing proposal, including equivalent product match data, unit measurements, and total estimated annual unit purchases. The submission must factor in costs associated with the Prime Vendor and adhere to the prescribed qualifications for consideration. Only those vendors currently listed on the Qualified Suppliers List (QSL) for the product line will be evaluated. Non-selected vendors will receive written notification post-submission deadline. This document serves as a structured request for pricing and compliance from potential suppliers to ensure alignment with Department of Defense standards, emphasizing the importance of accurate and complete submissions to secure government contracts.
